AIPAC applauds the U.S. Senate for standing with Israel and once again rejecting Senator Sanders' attempt to ban vital weapons sales to the Jewish state as it fights to protect its families from Iran and its terrorist proxies. Several times in less than a year, the overwhelming bipartisan majority of the Senate has repeatedly rebuffed Bernie Sanders’ dangerous efforts to undermine Israel’s security.

AIPAC commends the House for adopting the Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act (H.R. 8282), which imposes sanctions on persons aiding the International Criminal Court's (ICC) morally bankrupt and legally baseless attack against Israel.

AIPAC commends Congress for including key pro-Israel provisions in the funding bills for Fiscal Year 2024. Importantly, the legislation provides the full $3.3 billion in U.S. security assistance to Israel, as agreed to in the 2016 Memorandum of Understanding. This essential funding, with no added political conditions, is urgently needed by our ally as Israel battles Hamas and other Iranian terrorist proxies on its borders.

We welcome the announcement of the deal to release the hostages who have been brutally held captive by Hamas in violation of both international law and basic humanity.

AIPAC commends the U.S. Senate for including critical pro-Israel provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2024. The importance of these provisions is underscored by Israel’s current fight to remove the Hamas terrorist enemy from Gaza. Importantly, the bipartisan defense measure authorizes $500 million in FY 2024 for U.S.-Israel missile defense cooperation. This includes funds for Israeli procurement of Iron Dome, David’s Sling and Arrow, and for bilateral research, development, testing and evaluation.

AIPAC commends the U.S. House of Representatives for including critical pro-Israel provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2025.

Once again, Amnesty International has issued a slanderous attack on Israel that amounts to a blood libel against the Jewish state.

We appreciate the efforts of the Biden Administration to work closely together with our ally Israel to forge a ceasefire in Lebanon.

The ICC has reached a new low in its morally bankrupt and legally baseless attacks against the Jewish state. Congress must now act to sanction ICC officials.

AIPAC commends the U.S. Senate for standing with Israel and overwhelmingly rejecting proposed bans on critical weapons sales to the Jewish state as it fights to protect its families from Iran and its terrorist proxies.
